My life for the rest of last week went the normal way. i.e, getting bullied in school and coming home to act like school's fine. The day I hated most during this past week was Wednesday. I was getting a book for my next class from my locker when Kate came around. I was stunned. She wasn't saying anything. She just kept staring. I began to wonder if she knew I used to like her. I was about stepping away when she yelled.

"Don't touch me! I have a freaking boyfriend,"
I was stunned like who's she talking to?
Just then, I felt something come in contact with my back. Turning around, I saw Mike dropping a slab with Tim and Wholly coming forward with their clenched fists. I couldn't guess if it was an arrangement by all of them or Kate decided to intensify the bitch spirit she possesses to set me up.
I got the answer by the time they were done fixing my face. Kate walked up to me, spat and said "that's for embarrassing me in class on Monday"

I got home that day to meet my moms absence. I was first of all grateful for that. I didn't want to explain how I got my lips torn and blood on my shirt. In a flash, I cleaned myself and did my laundry. I was sure to wash the clothes I removed that day first in case mom got home and met me washing.
Like I predicted though, she came home and met me doing my laundry. She was surprised and asked why I was doing my laundry on a Wednesday. I just gave a painful smile hiding my lip and said I was just that bored. The look she gave told me instantly that she didn't believe but she didn't push it. She went down to prepare dinner.

"Dinner is ready love", she called out to me 30 minutes after I was done with my laundry.

As I sat to eat, she noticed my lips and asked what happened.
Like a foreseen event, I was ready with a lie.
"I tripped and fell mom", I replied sounding casual.

I hate having to lie to my mum but I didn't want to bother her with what I've been holding on since freshman year.

Now...

I'm in the kitchen making a toast and coffee. My mom traveled for an important meeting outside town so I decided to skip being bullied today. It is my first time skipping school. It wouldn't have been if my mom traveled often. Anyway, I skipped school today. I know mom's gonna find out sooner or later but then, I'd lie again and tell her I got sick after she left so I had to skip school. She'd believe of course since I'm not one to skip school.

I ate my food in solitude. I was still eating when I heard the hood dog barking. I hated when it made that noise. It's bark creeps me out. I did the dishes and went up to my room to study. I study for at least two hours on week days. Weekends, I spend at least 6hours studying. Mom never had to worry about getting me a tutor or my grades as I was doing just fine alone.

Prrr prrr, my cell phone rang. Without looking at the caller ID, I knew it was mom. She was the only one that ever did call me.

"Hello mother", I said into the phone
"Yes, I'm fine mom. Just got a lil fever. How's the meeting going?"
"It's not so serious don't worry mom"
"I understand mom"
"Alright, that's great, enjoy yourself"
"No mom, I'm fine, seriously. I'm not a kid anymore"
"Yes, toast and coffee"
"Alright then, goodnight"

After speaking with my mom, I took a shower and went to bed wondering what the next say has in store for me. I tossed and tossed around in bed till sleep came my way minutes to midnight.
